Quote from @Caleb Brown: I would focus on being an agent first and building that business.

It's way more flexible than other other tools, cause you can explain in plaintext what's your strategy, and it will fill in pretty accurate estimates.

If not rented at fair market rent, this property will just count as your residence, not a rental for tax purposes.Structuring the property under an LLC or land trust could trigger a due-on-sale clause, so check with the lender before proceeding.To minimize risk, consult a CPA for tax strategy, weigh financing costs, and draft a legal rental agreement.

Quote from @Jadon Grant: So, my business partner and I have run into a little bit of a roadblock.

Hey Wes, My business partner and I are investors/agents/wholesalers in Phoenix.

@Khaled Seirafi what business would make the mistake of providing BAD references?

Your “don’t evict strategy” could only make sense in a market that literally hates landlords.

i noticed though that the strategies you proposed are very different... an STR is a hospitality business and syndication is (in theory) at least somewhat passive.my main tip in getting started is not to rush into anything. 

Are there any strategies to sell subject to,s to end buyers?

This could reduce your taxable income in those years.Your decision depends on your long-term strategy.
